Video Game Review – Decay: The Mare
Ben Rayner reviews Decay: The Mare… Point and click games have seen somewhat of a revival in recent years, both from retro titles seeing re-releases and newer imaginings of the genre, most notably the recent swathe of games that simply demand you click everything in sight until you’ve hit the right item to progress. No, […]

Video Game Review – Final Fantasy Type-0 HD
Ben Rayner reviews Final Fantasy Type-0 HD… Final Fantasy Type-0 has had a long and arduous journey to the shores of the western market.

Video Game Review – State of Decay: Year One Survival Edition

Games like Turrican, Bubble Bobble, Double Dragon and […]
Video Game Review – This Is the Police
Ben Rayner reviews This Is the Police… Ahh jeez and he was one day from retirement. Well, that’s not strictly true, it was closer to 180 days from retirement when officer Jack Boyd grew tired of doing the right thing. An exhausting run of toeing the line between right and wrong to keep a squeaky […]
